About

As a mechanical engineer with a passion for innovation and design, I am eager to embark on a career that challenges me to apply my technical skills and creativity to solve complex problems. Previous experience working as a Design engineer with Tata Motors in ERC, I am a part of Interior trims team. Working with CFTs in New product development of soft and hard interior trims for projects like Avinya, Sierra, Nexon, Punch and Curvv. Throughout my academic journey, I have gained hands-on experience in designing and analyzing mechanical systems, as well as proficiency in software like Catia V6/V5 and Creo. Additionally, my CS minor has equipped me with knowledge of programming languages like Python, and skills in algorithm design and data analysis. I have also participated in projects and internships that allowed me to work on real-world engineering challenges and develop my project management skills. With a strong work ethic, attention to detail, and a willingness to learn, I am excited to contribute my skills to a dynamic team and make meaningful contributions to the industry.
